Based on Nonviolent Communication

and Relationship Coaching techniques.

How Can We Successfully Have Difficult Conversations... If We Were Never Taught How?

Winning Conflict is a beginner-friendly, step-by-step guide and support system that empowers us to have connecting conversations about difficult and painful topics... so we can end fights, truly resolve issues, and finally heal from conflicts.

1. STOP CONFLICTS

Simple tools to stop fights, so you can prepare for productive conversations.

2. STRUCTURED TALKS

Follow the guide to slow down, hear each other, and resolve issues and conflicts.

3. SUPPORT AS NEEDED

Join the free interactive workshops, or
get personal help for more difficult topics.

Step-by-step System

To end conflicts and hear each other, most of us don't need therapy. We just need to have conversations in a way that works.

But, very few of us ever learned how to successfully have difficult conversations. Instead, we react to each other, things escalate, and we end up fighting or avoiding talking altogether.

Winning Conflict is everything you need to make having those conversations as easy and straight-forward as possible.

It does not require:

  • Spending years relearning how to communicate.

  • Memorizing unnatural sounding scripts.

  • Being "perfect" and never have reactions.

  • Forcing others to talk differently.

Just pick a topic and follow the steps.

The 330-page book has 10 chapters with steps and examples of how to talk about issues that would otherwise likely never get resolved, starting with a simple way to quickly stop most conflicts, so we have space to follow the rest of the steps.

If the other person will not actively join us, The system can be followed on our own. Or, it can be followed together, which often turns conflict into a collaborative, enjoyable experience.

There are also 3 bonus chapters to help us become aware of habits that unintentionally escalate conflict or lead to disconnection, so we can more quickly connect to each other.
